It’s called a painstorm for a reason. The reason is because it’s a storm of pain. One could even go so far as to say that painstorm is a portmentau of the words pain and storm, and one would not be incorrect. You’ve got the morning to get loose people – show up ready to breather fire. For newbies, we will have you team up and do 10 rounds of the “Painstorm”
Gilson working with Caleb on his snatch.
